A Study on Implementing Internet Resources in Digitization of School Libraries

Abstract

In recent years people have seen a boom in the development of technology; therefore, Internet has been playing an increasingly important role in learning .The fastest developed information service system on the Internet is World Wide Web. WWW transmits all kinds of information via multimedia. Students would rather find information by surfing the net than do it by going to a library. Digital learning has become a tendency. Many school libraries have digitized their libraries. However, some libraries, especially those of elementary and high schools, do not have the budget to do so. Fortunately, many Internet resources are free. The purpose of this research is: if we can categorize useful Internet resources as we do with books, record the web addresses , give description of them in a clear web design page, and then put the web design page on the web site of the school library, we can offer them to the teachers and students who need these Internet resources. It not only complements the electronic collections of school libraries but also promotes the digitization of them.
